ADRIAN — Adrian police arrested Scott Matthew Barron, 32, of Adrian on suspicion of operating while intoxicated following a crash at 10:27 p.m. Dec. 23 on Riverside Avenue a short distance west of Ballenberger Road, according to a police report.

According to the report, Barron was driving east on Riverside Avenue when his pickup hit a parked sport utility vehicle, causing that vehicle to hit a van that also was parked. Barron’s pickup also hit a tree.

An officer called to the scene smelled alcohol in Barron’s truck and saw beer cans and gave Barron a series of field sobriety tests. Barron was not offered a preliminary breath test because he had suffered an injury to his mouth.

Following the field sobriety tests, Barron was arrested on a charge of operating while intoxicated. He was taken to ProMedica Bixby Hospital, where his mouth injury was checked and he submitted to a blood draw for a blood-alcohol determination. Barron was lodged in the Lenawee County Jail. Police are seeking enhanced, or so-called “super drunk,” operating while intoxicated charges against Barron. Barron also was cited for careless driving.
